10.20.17 Spine Surgery 13

Hey, Aimee finally got a bigger space. In fact, she got a giant room! We were able to bring in her wheelchair and using the lift we moved her over to start some adjustments. The PT that was helping us actually thought someone had run into her chair, because the headrest was so off center. No, she was really that crooked! Looking forward to seeing her sitting up tall soon. For now, we had to cut short the adjustment session cause Aimee was starting to cry with the pain.

Goal for the moment is still increasing fluid tolerance. Eventually we would like to get some calories in her! For now we are waiting for an ICU nurse to come put in a new IV as her remaining one was in bad shape and had to be removed. 

Second goal is working towards getting her to the point of being able to tolerate sitting in a toilet chair for enimas/flushes.
